A radiographic silver halide film has reduced yellow dye stain by including a blend of tabular silver halide grains in the emulsion layers. The blend of grains includes blue-sensitive tabular silver halide grains that have an aspect ratio of at least 15, a grain thickness of at least 0.1 .mu.m, and comprise at least 90 mol % bromide and up to 4 mol % iodide, based on total silver halide. Substantially all of the iodide is present in an internal localized portion of the tabular silver halide grains that excludes the surface of the grains. The blend also includes green-sensitive tabular silver halide grains that have an aspect ratio of at least 20, a grain thickness of at least 0.07 .mu.m, and comprise at least 90 mol % bromide, up to 1.5 mol % chloride, and up to 1.5 mol % iodide, based on total silver halide. The molar ratio of silver in the blue-sensitive silver halide grains to the silver in the green-sensitive silver halide grains is from about 2:1 to about 6:1. The tabular silver halide grains are dispersed in a hydrophilic polymeric vehicle mixture comprising at least 0.5% of oxidized gelatin, based on the total dry weight of the polymeric vehicle mixture in the emulsion layer.
